Inscription
"In memory of a pious pair this carved stone was erected
here, viz., of Mr. John Breed and his wife Mercy who lived
together in ye marriage state in a most religious manner about
64 years, and the deceased, leaving numerous offspring; he
in 1751 about 90 years of age, and she in 1752 about 83 years.
Erected in the year 1772 by six of their children then living.
Behold the righteous live long on earth,
And in old age resign their breath.
They and their offspring here are blessed:
When done with life they go to rest."
